I have one of those kittens that shows up on your door step as a tiny little stray, and never wants to go back outside ever again.

It's her first summer and she hates the heat - after hours of disappearing she claws herself out from under the couch to greet me with this face.

I'm pretty sure this is one of those cats that lives an ungodly amount of time, purely out of spite. If there's one thing scarier than an orange cat with one brain cell, it's a gray cat with two. I love her with my entire heart. Please share with me your chaotic cat.

 

Do you ever miss your refill appointments, like, almost every time? I've been conserving my Adderall since the shortage started - I've only gotten one refill in the past six months, and I've also missed every refill appointment in that time. I'm throwing money away for fees to reschedule appointments ... for a medication that helps me remember appointments ... that I can't even get refilled because of the supply change shortage. It's so frustrating and ironic, all I can do is try to laugh.

^hahaha^

Maplestory has my heart and probably part of my soul too. I played Maplestory from ages 5 to 13 and pretty much made a full time job out of it. In fact, last time I was on a forum was basilmarket - if you know you know!

Maybe this isn't contributing much, but I'm trying to put myself out here to keep the community active. I always would hesitate before commenting my opinion on reddit, lol.

My job borders on the tech industry (environmental modelling, so we use a lot of the framework that programmers do but most of my work is environmental work), but I've always had a really great interest in tech and gaming.

I had a couple of different Android phones, like I really tried - some LG phone but also a Samsung Galaxy S3 - and I felt like they aged quickly. If I installed one too many weird apps it would start running slow like the PCs I used to pirate on in the 2000s. That has literally never happened to me with an iPhone. The ease and seamlessness of messaging and facetiming with other iPhone users (80% of people in my life) is great enough that I can kind of shrug my shoulders and say 'There's no ethical consumption under capitalism anyways.' Plus the seamlessness with the Apple Watch and being able to keep my phone in my bag and know if anything important comes up by looking at my wrist? Honestly has helped me kick the phone habit.

I had a Mac for a while also, but ended up selling it when I felt so limited in the games I could play and apps I could use. I find that Apple's computers are pretty worthless to me, but if I had the money to spend and wanted a reliable, fast browsing and general computing experience, I'm sure I would gladly spend the money on it. But this is coming from someone with a $3000 beast of a home machine lol

I think a lot of us here see and appreciate all yall need to do. I saw the coding request a few days after it was posted - I work from home during the week and would be happy to donate some time to help keep things up and running. I'll keep an eye out - remember there are probably lots of genuine people here that would be happy to help!

Thanks for the push - just put in my first donation and will set up a recurring one after my next paycheck. Trying to do my part by 1) being active(ish) in the community and 2) monetarily

My dog is convinced she can fit in the cats bed. She is a 60 lb pitbull boxer. Looks just like this lol

I see dozens of sex toys when I work a shift at Amazon but I always chuckle to myself when multiple are for one order. Next time I'll think of you lol!

Hahaha that is amazing! I was going to go for my cryptic variation of '1bluxjay' only to realize that I can have the actual username. Been a long time since I've been able to do that.

After the subreddits go un-dark I will probably still use this for searching until there's a LLM set-up to "replace" google searching (which Bing is Still Not, imo).

I saw that too - hopefully the changes will show in the next “up” cycle. Apparently the bots are out to play as well.
